I picked up the vibes today from the mall of america. My source is a 3G 20Gig iPod. At first I didn't find them justifying their price tag and gave up after about 30 mins of listening, deciding I was going to return them tomorrow but I forgot that I was going into the vibes coming from the...

As far as intensity goes, how would you compare the bass to the PX100? About the same amount?

Hey all! Before I say anything I want to say I've read this forum to death about IEMs. After doing a lot of research I thought the ER6is would be a great fit for me since what was highlighted by most of you was the neutral sound signature and clarity but as soon as I popped them in and got a...

I would avoid the ER6i. I dont consider myself a basshead at all but the ER6i isnt exactly warm or full sounding straigh out of an ipod without an amp. It is entirely accurate when people say they are neutral and they have clarity, but they are not worth the $100 i paid for them when put next to...

Did I miss the sale?

How is the sound signature compared to the iPod (3G, if you want to be specific). I love the iPod's laid back, neutral sound signature and my PX100s sound great with it. I really want the X5 and plan to sell off my iPod, but sonically, is it worth it? I know it is a well reputed brand, but I...

Hello all, The plug on my Senns PX100s died recently, and I am aware that this is an easy fix, but I have no idea on how to go about doing that. I have a spare plug, wire strippers, and solder/soldering iron. I have nothing else to listen to music from now! Help?

I almost always fall asleep with my PX100s on my ears, and when they kind of fall off once my eyes have finally closed, I have rolled around/layed down on top of them many times, and they still are in perfect condition. Nothing was bent or broken, and I have been doing this for 4/5 months now. A...

On my winter break, upto 8 hrs a day if Im at home not doing anything. I use the PX100s, the sound signature is non fatiguing and they never hurt my ears.

Just to expand on this question with out creating a new thread: My brother is looking for some headphones with a lot of bass. He likes hip hop and rap a lot so what would be a good pair for maybe $50 and under?

hey update everyone: I went to the Apple store at the mall to try out the e2cs. I had to buy them before I could try them (side note: 99$!?) Okay, I decided to test them using the in store iPods, and all I can say was, I was horrified. The e2cs cost is not justified by their quality. Rolled...

Im willing to settle for a little brightness, but not too much. From what I understand, the ER6 are the brightest of the lot. Im looking for something that will balance both brightness and darkness. My point is that Im not looking for something that sounds exactly like the PX100s, but...

Hey this is interesting. From this link http://www.dapreview.net/content.php?article.133 I came across the following: In relation to the iPod "Perhaps the easiest way to overcome the equalizer's shortcomings is to just not use it! Bangraman at the Head-Fi forums recommends headphones such as...

Can anyone second the E2c reccomendation?

The first pair of good headphones I purchased after coming to head-fi were the PX100s. I love them. They really shine in more quiet areas where there isnt a lot of ambient noise but seem to lose their acoustics on a bus or just walking around outside. I have been looking at the ER6s as an in ear...

Use ephpod, the best alternative to itunes out there. Much better than iTunes in my opinion. Has all the features iTunes does (except the iTunes store), without being intrusive and annoying, plus it's freeware. ephpod does have a stable Win 98 version out @ www.ephpod.com

Oh hah. I keep associating health with the heart. Im a runner, maybe that's why.

Healthwise?

Well if any of you are willing to sell any extra pairs you might have purchased, or you are dissatisfied with your pair, please let those of us who lucked out know!

Would a PX100 user such as myself be horribly let down by the er6? If they sound similar, or even if the er6 sound relatively better, please say so, because I will definately buy!

What is the loudness preset designed for exactly? It make my music sound horrid. I listen mainly to rock, so I did try that EQ setting at first, but the treble on "ROCK" is way too abrasive and the bass is way too overwhelming, and drowns out a lot of the details. Now I use the latin setting...
